[quote=Anonymous]OP, just a head's up that I got into my top choice schools with an essay my parents thought was bad but I thought was okay. I refused to change it because I liked what I'd written. Apparently it was good enough for the admissions department. If you want to give your daughter feedback on *why* you think it's bad (too purple? too boring?) it's on her to fix it, but just saying "you need to try harder" when she thinks it's good is a bit ridiculous. And her submitting something you think is bad is definitely not necessary the end of the world.[/quote]
